    Thanks everyone for the congrats & well-wishes. I'll post more pics once it gets here & I get it cleaned up.

    I don't know how to do a "sound clip", but I am sure someone in the SSF crew will help out.

    Congrats, I know how much you wanted another F-car. Now it will be in your garage and I can hear you every f*cking time you start it. Since you live within a couple of blocks from me. I 'm sure that my heart will jump out of my chest and I will RUN over and research on the web for a f-car for myself : -)

    Hey, where was that padded room??? I will need it now.

    Jason, I was there during that event. That is one of the LOUDEST cars I've ever heard.

    Rev it through a neighborhood and you'll be getting lots of complaints. ;)

    Best of Luck with her.

    I was assured by the transport driver that he would be picking my car up at FOLI today before 5pm. (It was supposed to be picked up on Wednesday or yesterday) The waiting game is driving me insane...........

    FYI, the stripe is under the clearcoat, you're not taking it off unless you want to repaint your car. I'm suprized nobody mentioned that yet.

    Don't worry, the stripe will grow on you. Congratulations on one of the finest automobiles every made.

    If I understood him right, the stripe is aftermarket, and is applied to the cars outer surface. However, you are correct in saying that the FACTORY stripe is vinyl under clear coat.

    BTW. Welcome to FChat.

    Yes, I got a call confirming that it's on the truck on Friday afternoon. It could be here as early as Monday or Tuesday. I'll be cleaning out my garage tomorrow!!! Don't worry Robert, I'm sure you'll hear it when it's delivered!!!

    Mbutner is correct. On this car, the stripe was added by FOLI after the car was delivered. It's just a vinyl sticker, and there's no clear-coat over it. It looks pretty cool from 2+ feet away, and it was done very well for an aftermarket add-on, but if you get right up to it & look hard, you can tell that it's a sticker.

    Utkarsh is correct, I'm talking about the rims for the F430 challenge rim option that's available on the F430. They are the same rims as the CS.
